Buying iTunes music now on an older 10.2.8 system

Help!
I've bought lots of music on iTunes, but stopped for about six months. Tried to buy music this weekend, but iTunes kept telling me to download iTunes 7, then when I did, I couldn't operate on my 10.2.8 system. Is there anyway to skip iTunes 7, and just keep buying music the old way, or must I purchase the 10.3.8 or 10.4 upgrade and use iTunes 7?
Appreciate any answers.

Can you tell me where to find iTunes 6.0.5?
I just checked and I'm still running 5.0!
It's a shame they're making me change ... if I didn't even have to be aware of what version I was running, it must have been pretty good software!
(I don't want to have to know the model number of my shovel ... I just want to use it to dig a hole!)
I keep getting the notice to upgrade to 7 when I try to buy a song ... but I can't see buying new system software and paying $$$ to replace/upgrade all of my existing applications just to buy a 99 cent song!

Hello CarenzaRielle,
I know not being able to access your Apple ID can be frustrating. I have located an article that will walk you through a series of troubleshooting steps to resolve this:

Tried to backup Itunes music, now it's gone

I'm getting the error message on all my Itunes songs, "original file could not be found." The songs don't seem to be anywhere on my computer...A couple weeks ago, I dragged my Itunes music folder onto my flash drive. Now I'm out of the country, and my flash drive is at home, so I'm not even sure if I'm on there. Are my songs somewhere on my computer and I'm not seeing them? In the future how do I backup my Itunes library onto a flash drive without losing all my songs? It sounds incredibly simple but clearly I am not getting it...

Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

Deleted all iTunes music, now can't download past purchases. Help!

I've somehow deleted all my iTunes music. All the file names are still in the library but every time I select one I get the "can't find original file" message and now it won't let me download my past purchases. How do I fix this?

Do you still have them in your computer's recycle bin/trashcan that you can restore them from ?
If not then what you can redownload will show under the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage. If music shows there (it won't in all countries) but doesn't have the cloud symbol against then try deleting the tracks so that they are no longer listed in the Music part of your library (where you are getting the 'unable to locate' message) and they should then get the cloud symbol in Purchased. Or you can tick the 'shows iTunes in the Cloud purchases' tick box on the Store tab in Edit > Preferences (iTunes > Preferences if using a Mac) and they should then show with the cloud icon in the Music part of your library so that you can redownload them from there (again you will need to delete the missing tracks for them to potentially show for redownloading).
If you've changed countries since downloading them then you won't be able to redownload them, nor if the rights-holder has removed them from the store.

ITunes Music Now 100% Plus

So I just saw on iTunes that everything is now the Plus format. Yet when I click upgrade, it doesn't show me anything. Will it be adding more stuff to upgrade soon, or will I have to repurchase all my non Plus songs and videos.

Confirm that the item you wish to upgrade is still listed in the iTunes Store. Some items, apparently for which Apple could not get Plus versions from the record companies, have been removed.
For those items that are in the Store, apparently sometimes, for various reasons (replacement of a track in the Store with another copy, slight changes in the release identification, etc.) the link between the track and your Purchase History can break, which will result in the track not appearing as eligible for iTunes Plus upgrade even though it exists as Plus in the Store.
Contact the iTunes Store Customer Service department using the form at the bottom of the Purchase Issues FAQ web page (there is no category specifically for this issue, so I'd suggest just picking one under the Purchases - problem area) and explain the problem to them. It may take a couple of email exchanges to get past the "form" email responses, but eventually they should work out a solution for you. You may need to provide the track name, artist and order number so they can confirm the original purchase.
Regards.

Except for anything you did not purchase in iTunes Store.
Only you iTunes purchases are in the cloud.

I downloaded the latest update of Itunes, and now I have no music. NONE. how do I uninstall this mess and go back to what I had, without having to put it all back in manually. I am really hating ITUNES right now.

What happened to my music when I downloaded the latest version of Itunes? I had quite a few songs there and now NOTHING. I want to uninstall this version and go back to the older one. how do I do this without wiping out whatever else is left on there? I am already ticked off that I will have to put all my music back an there manually ( I don't want all my music collection on Itunes. I am really hating Itunes right now. So what can I do?

Hi,
[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/xmarks-sync/?src=search Xmarks] is a bookmarks/history/tabs backup/sync utility. It is not a feature of Firefox. It is an extension which had to be manually added or perhaps could have come with another extension.
If you have registered with the service you have to enter the username and password to log in to the service. Otherwise try pressing the '''Esc''' key on the keyboard and after Firefox opens, go to '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Add-ons''', click Extensions on the left and look for Xmarks and '''Disable''' to disable it or '''Remove''' to uninstall it. If that doesn't work, start Firefox in [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe%20Mode Safe Mode.] In the first screen choose '''Disable all add-ons''' and '''Make Changes and Restart''' and repeat the above procedure, but this time, re-enable all the needed extensions except Xmarks. You may also have to re-enable the plugins after clicking '''Plugins''' on the left).

I have old email address's I used for iTune music purchases and cannot change password on several old accounts. Now some of the music I purchased I can not download and authorize it on my device. What can I do password security does not match my birthdate on two of the accounts. Apple can not send me email with a password authorization on several current accounts that I have with them. How can I contact Apple with this annoying problem I can not fix.

settings - app/iTunes store - sign out and sign back in with your new id.
Note - if your older apps needs an update it will use your old apple id and password, as Apps are tied to the apple id that was used to purchase it.
You can't merge apple id.

Apple installed a new logic board and now iTunes music is all gone and I cannot log into store or authorize my Mac

I have an early 2011 i7 MacBook Pro running OSX 10.9.4. Earlier this week I had Geniuses at the Apple Store install a new logic board to replace a failed one. My hard drive was not touched. Anyway, when I got home and launched iTunes, I discovered that none of the tens of thousands of legally purchased songs in my iTunes library were listed, even though they actually still exist in my Music folder. Additionally, my attempts to login to the iTunes Store with my valid and correct and accurate and current Apple ID with the correct password, did not work. In fact, no errors were generated. The logins simply erased my input after clicking SIGN IN and then the "Sign In" form came back empty.
As a developer and 28+ year user of the Mac, I was a little stunned to say the least. The Apple Store logic board replacement process should take into account iTunes authentication problems when replacing failed logic boards, but this issue was not discussed at all, in any form during the repair intake process. So, I now have a 'fixed' MacBook Pro that will not acknowledge my thousands of legally purchased songs and will not let me log into the iTunes Store with my valid credentials or authorize or de-authorize my Mac.
Indeed, iTunes Match is also disabled, which means $30 thrown away in paid subscription.
Does anyone know a workaround to this Apple flaw that can correct their mistake and re-enable my Mac for using my thousands of legally purchased songs?
Any feedback would be most appreciated!
Thanks,
Larry

Having your main logic board replaced wouldn't erase music from your hard drive, if it was actually stored on the drive. Your iTunes music resides in your user home folder in a folder called Music.
When you do get a logic board replaced, however, it is a good idea to have the computer first de-authorized from iTunes since you are only permitted to associate your iTunes Store account DRM purchases (movies, tv shows, and older digital-rights-managed music) with up to five computers. See Deauthorize your computer using iTunes.
When a new logic board is installed, you'll need to reauthorize the Mac again. It's not the end of the world, however, if this step wasn't initially taken. See Authorize your computer using iTunes.
...As for not seeing your music when you launch iTunes—try point iTunes to the correct location of your iTunes folder. To do this, quit iTunes. Press the option key and click the iTunes icon in the dock. It will then ask you to navigate to the location of your iTunes music (again usually located in the Music folder in your home folder).

I need help,i changed my primary email,now when i want to buy itunes,the old email name keeps coming up,how do i get the old primary email off of my phone

i changed my primary email,and now when i go to buy itune songs,my old email keeps coming up,how do i get my old email off of the phone

The only thing I did was I went to the Apple.com , logged in and changed my primary e-mail since I will be losing the old email soon ( I have a different job). I said update info and verified the email was correct. I just went to settings on icloud and logged out and tried to log in and now it won't take anything. I don't even know now which e-mail they want the primary one or recovery, it won't take any of the 3. Not sure what else to try at this point, I guess I can't buy any more music.

HT1386 I have an app called ipieta which was originally downloaded onto an ipod. I gave the ipod to someone else, but now that I've had the iphone I can not get the audio even though it is downloaded into itunes music like it said to do. It won't work.

I gave the ipod to someone else, but now that I've had the iphone I can not get the audio even though it is downloaded into itunes music like it said to do. It won't work. I've tried more than several times to get help but nothing helps. Do I need to deauthorize the ipod or perhaps erase all the downloaded ipieta stuff and start over?
Thanks for any suggestions

Sorry. There's nothing anyone can do. The current version of the facebook app will not run on 4.2.1. The iPhone 3G won't run anything higher than 4.2.1. You're stuck.
Maybe it's time to buy yourself a new iPod Touch.
